[Effect of intraarterially injected lipiodol on rat liver with cirrhosis]
1Department of Radiology, Kinki University School of Medicine.
Abstract:
The serial histological changes of the liver following the intrahepatic arterial injection of Lipiodol in the rat with cirrhosis were investigated. The hepatocytes showed acidophilic degeneration and focal necrosis after 12 hours and restoration of focal necrosis was seen after 72 hours. Necrosis and infarction were resolved after 120 hours. We concluded that the intrahepatic arterial injection of 0.1 ml Lipiodol in the rat with cirrhosis was safely performed.
